Gongsun Gong had already arrived early and was chatting with the officials in detail. Gongsun Chuyue looked at the harmonious atmosphere around him, pulled the corners of his mouth, and picked up the teacup to cover his mocking face.

She once thought that this was really the case, until after her father's accident, the tree fell and scattered, and it would be good if she didn't fall into the well, and the affection in the past was for their own interests.

"Hey, what's your name, why haven't I seen you before?" A cute-looking girl came to talk to her.

The round little face, eating in his mouth, staring at Gongsun Chuyue with big round eyes, without blinking, the curiosity in his eyes was not concealed.

"My name is Gongsun Chuyue, I am the second lady of the Gongsun family, I was recuperating in Zhuangzi before I was picked up." Gongsun Chuyue gently introduced himself to her, and a soft tone sounded.

"Wow, you speak so softly, I like you, my name is Yuan Lin, and I am the daughter of the Ministry of Rites, can we be friends?" Yuan Lin asked cautiously, his eyes clean and pure.

"Absolutely."

"Oh yes, I've got friends, haha, I've got friends." Yuan Lin stepped forward and hugged her and said happily.

Gongsun Chuyue was puzzled, the daughter of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, how could it be?

"Chu Yue, you don't know, those girls in the capital don't want to play with me, they dislike me for being stupid, although there are people who play with me, but their eyes are full of calculations, although I am not smart, but I am not stupid, I will not play with them." Yuan Lin pursed his lips and put his hands around his arms, very cute.

"What if I lied to you, silly girl." Gongsun Chuyue patted her on the shoulder, smiled and shook his head.

"You won't lie to me, I'm very smart, you can't fool me, hehe." That arrogant look dazzled Gongsun Hu Yue's eyes.

"Good, good, you're smart." Seeing that Yuan Lin is so simple, Gongsun Chuyue always wants to spoil her, maybe she hasn't met such a person for too long.

When the two were talking.

"The emperor has arrived." The eunuch's shrill voice rang out.

"The minister (courtier, courtier) visits the emperor and the queen, long live the emperor, long live the queen, and the queen is a thousand years old." Everyone knelt down collectively, and the sound resounded.

"Haha, all Aiqing is flat, today is a green trip, for Aiqing no formality, play to your heart's content." The emperor laughed heartily.

Gongsun Chuyue looked at the emperor in front of him, it was he who investigated the Shen Mansion with his own hands, leaving no mercy, even the old and young women and children of the Shen Mansion, and the hatred in her eyes was monstrous.

The emperor was in a high position and had always been highly vigilant, he suddenly looked back and found that there was nothing abnormal, and walked towards the high position.

Si Tian, the emperor of Southern Liang, is a rare beautiful man, he is nearly forty years old, he is still energetic, his eyes are sharp, and the handsomeness of his youth can be faintly seen from the outline.

"Haha, this year is more lively than usual."

"Under the wise leadership of the emperor, the country will only become richer and stronger." The civil officials who are accustomed to sycophants flatter the emperor when they see the needles.

"Lin Aiqing's words, I love to listen, haha." That's why people know that the lie is false, but they are still willing to listen to it, because it will really be happy for the body and mind.

"In previous years, the talent competition was very exciting, I don't know what to see this year?" The emperor glanced around, and the meaning of his words was unfathomable.

"I won't disappoint the emperor." The civil official in charge of this talent competition swore an oath.

In fact, the process and content are similar every year, and the purpose of the emperor's event is only to check the reactions of various officials, and take the opportunity to give marriage to some suitable people to stabilize the court pattern.

Everyone knew it, but they didn't dare to say it.

"Gongsun Aiqing, I heard that you have a daughter who has returned home, I don't know if it's true or not?" The emperor's faint voice came, without any ups and downs.

"Back to the emperor, it is the second daughter of the minister, Gongsun Chuyue, she has been frail and sick since she was a child, and she has just returned to the mansion recently." Gongsun Gong hung his head, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Oh, let her come out and see me."

"Gongsun Chuyue sees the emperor, long live the emperor." Gongsun Chuyue heard the emperor talking about her, so he immediately walked to the center with his skirt and knelt down.

The emperor stared at the girl on the ground, his eyes flashed with amazement, "Gongsun Aiqing, you are really blessed, the eldest daughter is bright and moving, and the younger daughter is captivating the country and the city, I can't help but envy you when I see you." ”

"Being able to get the emperor's favor is a blessing that they have cultivated for several generations." Gongsun Gong answered the emperor's question in two by two.

"Gongsun Chuyue, what are you preparing for today's talent competition?"

"Back to the emperor, the courtiers prepared to play the piano." Gongsun Chuyue didn't want to say a word to the emperor, but she still had to deal with him, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to control herself and show her flaws.

"Oh, is it? You try it. The emperor raised his eyebrows, and his hand kept fiddling with the tea lid, and the holy will was unpredictable.

"Yes, the courtiers obey."

Gongsun Chuyue walked to the high platform where he played the piano, and the sound of the piano was transmitted from high to low was the best, so the place where he played the piano was set relatively high.

Gongsun Chuyue looked at this piano, named Fengqin, which was the favorite thing of the former queen Shangguan Lan, and I heard that Shangguan Lan was superb and had attracted the blood of the phoenix, so this piano was called Fengqin.

Gongsun Chuyue tried the sound, sat down, and began to play.

The early piano sound is low and tactful, like a thin water flowing slowly, listening to people are fascinated, immersed in it, the piano expresses the pleasure of pastoral life, how many people can not be reached, looking at the people who fall into the sound of the piano, she hooked her lips and smiled, this blooming peach forest is dazzling.

Suddenly, the sound of the piano turned, the sound of the piano was intense, surging, Jin Ge Iron Horse, Iron Horse Binghe, the sound of the piano seemed to create a scene of thousands of troops galloping, tens of millions of soldiers fought bloodily, tenaciously resisted the enemy, unyielding body, strong will, touched the hearts of everyone, it is their love and enthusiasm, there is a happy life here, everyone was deeply shocked.

The sound of the piano lasted for a while, and then returned to a low and gentle tone, the slightest ear of the piano sound, which formed a strong contrast with just now, but not abrupt, such a piano technique is really incomparable.

After a quarter of an hour, the sound of the piano stopped, and Gongsun Chuyue stroked the vibrating strings, and waited until it was completely still, before standing up and walking to the center.

"The emperor's courtiers are ugly."

The emperor has not recovered from the sound of the qin at the moment, once upon a time, he was also so passionate, and he didn't take anyone in his eyes, once upon a time, he also yearned for the life in the sound of the qin, when did it change, he forgot.

"Gongsun Chuyue, what you talked about is very much in my heart, come here, reward." The emperor came back to his senses, and the dragon's heart was happy.

At this moment, everyone also recovered from the sound of the piano, and everyone's eyes were fixed on her, it was hard to imagine how a deep girl could have such a broad vision.

Gongsun Chuyue looked at everyone, without a trace of panic, calm, her reaction fell into the eyes of the emperor, the emperor stroked the beard on his chin, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Courtiers, thank you for the emperor's reward." Gongsun Chuyue accepted the reward with peace of mind, and walked back to his seat with his head held high, awe-inspiring and showing everyone's demeanor.

"Chu Yue, you're amazing." Yuan Lin whispered beside him, giving her a thumbs up in his hand, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Wow, Chu Yue is so powerful, great, Yuan Lin recognized this friend even more in his heart.

"Hey, hey, little meaning." Gongsun Chuyue winked at her mischievously.

When Gongsun Yanran saw all this, the sour water in her heart was like knocking over a vinegar bottle, and the handkerchief in her hand was pinched into a twisted shape and she didn't know it.

Gongsun Yanran suppressed the jealousy in her heart and looked indifferent. Quietly looking at the scene in front of him, dignified and beautiful.

Through the competition of various talented women, the talent soon came to an end. Among them, Lin Ran, the daughter of the prime minister, was rewarded by the emperor for painting a picture of the country's wealth and people's strength, but there was nothing particularly outstanding about it.

Gongsun Chuyue undoubtedly got the first name this time, and the name of the talented woman resounded in Beijing, and the limelight of the second lady of the Gongsun family once overshadowed the eldest lady of the Gongsun family.

"Gongsun Chuyue took the order." The eunuch's shrill voice sounded.

Gongsun Chuyue was stunned, completely confused, and knelt down to accept the order with his body's conditioned reflex.

"Gongsun Chuyue, Hui quality Lanxin, beautiful and wise, dignified and beautiful, generous, very heartfelt, specially given to the second prince Si Yin as a concubine, choose a day to get married."

As the eunuch's voice fell, the women in the audience looked at Gongsun Chuyue enviously, although the second prince is not favored, but he is a prince anyway, and he will be a prince in the future, and the brocade clothes and jade food are doomed.

Although Gongsun Chuyue had prepared early in his heart, when the holy decree came down, he had mixed feelings in his heart. Once again, she doesn't trust anyone anymore.

"Gongsun Chuyue received the order, long live my emperor, long live." Gongsun Chuyue knelt on the ground, his lowered eyes could not see emotion.

Next, the emperor led the ministers to discuss national affairs, and the female dependents were led by the queen to drink tea and taste tea. Gongsun Chuyue listened to the content of their chat, it was nothing more than which family's jewelry was good-looking, which family's clothes were beautiful, and Gongsun Chuyue had no interest.

In her previous life, she was a general appointed by the emperor, and what she cared about was that the country was rich and the people were strong, and her daughter's things had never been related to her, and too gorgeous clothes would only be deadly poison on the battlefield.

Gongsun Chuyue was about to suffocate, so he took an opportunity and secretly ran out along the maid who came in and out.

Gongsun Yanran has been observing her, watching her go out, hooking her lips, the opportunity has come.

Gongsun Chuyue walked along the peach forest, looking at the peach blossoms in the mountains, she was in it, like a fairy in the peach forest, picking a peach blossom and gently putting it into the tip of her nose, the picture was very beautiful.

In the distance, a man in splendid clothes watched all this quietly. The eyebrows are extraordinary, and the skin is white and translucent,

With a hint of sickness, but the depth in his eyes is bottomless. The facial features are evil and charming, with a hint of masculinity, which cannot be ignored.

This person is Si Yinjue, the emperor's second son, who was not treated by the emperor because he was thin and weak since he was a child. In the talent competition just now, he didn't appear, so he didn't know that this girl was his fiancée.

Si Yin Jue looked at the pretty woman not far away, and did not step forward, in his opinion, women are nothing more than good-looking skins and embroidered pillows.

Gongsun appealed to Chu Yue to look around keenly, and always felt that there were a pair of eyes staring at her, but she didn't find anything abnormal. It may be that she lives again, and she is too insecure.
